IGE Abroad just launched a new program in Vienna, Austria which will focus on the business of skiing. That’s right – you take a ski industry course on sales channels and distribution while also skiing in the Alps, visiting the Atomic factory, and each student is given a new ski setup (skis, bindings, boots, poles, and a ski bag)! Sick Stickz and Atomic are the two sponsors. The application deadline is November 1st. You can view all the details by clicking here.

Sick Stickz is proud to be a sponsor of the Weekend Warrior Tour! Weekend Warrior is a big mountain skiing and snowboarding competition tour which just started this winter. There are currently two comps scheduled at Winter Park. The first competition is this weekend and is open to males and females, skiers and snowboarders, you just need to be 18 or older. You can register for the comp now at www.weekendwarriortour.com. Pre-register online through Friday night and you get a discount!

This event will be real sick! Tons of gear giveaways and great prizes!

Sick Stickz athlete Kjell Ellefson had a horrible fall earlier this season at Beaver Creek where he broke his leg, but he managed to film a bit before the injury. Along with friends Jim and Lucas, Kjell will be releasing a monthly webisode featuring amazing skiing and even better lifestyle footage. The series is called “The Playground Chronicles”. Take a look at the first episode here:
